Natalie Portman’s Ex Not Afraid to Show Off the NSFW Bits She’ll Be Missing
6:15AM Kyle Buchanan | Until their recent breakup, the unlikely pairing of actress Natalie Portman with scruffy, Manson-resembling troubadour Devendra Banhart had people asking, “What exactly does she see in him?” We tried to explain that starlets love themselves some hairy hippies, but still, the naysayers would not be deterred. Now, Banhart may have provided some insight into the matter with the album art for his upcoming side project, Megapuss. Baring all in a very, very NSFW manner, the folk singer shows off what had until recently been the sole property of one Queen Amidala: More »
BREAKING! Natalie Portman Hippie-Free! After …
6:45AM STV | BREAKING! Natalie Portman Hippie-Free! After six months at Devendra Banhart’s aromatic side, Natalie Portman is reportedly making a clean break from her hirsute paramour’s patchouli-stinking grip. “Natalie and Devendra will remain friends but need some space and time away,” a Banhart source says, but our own spies near Portman’s New York base insist the actress will begin washing that man right out of her hair — after a V For Vendetta-style shearing and 48-hour delousing quarantine, naturally. Welcome back, Nat! [ITW] More »
Ten Hairy Hippies That Do Inexplicably Well With The Ladies
5:30AM Defamer Hollywood | They’re one of Hollywood’s most glorious odd couples: pixie dream girl Natalie Portman and Manson-resembling folk singer Devendra Banhart. Still, despite the fact that Portman was game enough to appear as an octopus in one of Banhart’s videos, she still can’t seem to shake those naysayers clucking, “Is she really going out with him?” She is — and she’s hardly the first fresh-scrubbed starlet to fall for a charming, soap-eschewing bohemian. With the help of Molly McAleer, we’ve put together a Top Ten list of the world’s most loved-up hippie womanizers. Is it their devil-may-care facial hair, their free love attitudes, or their penchant for sharing necklaces that draws in Hollywood’s most beautiful ingenues? Burn some incense and meditate on the subject — we’ll be out back crafting a swingset out of hemp and spit. More »
Natalie Portman And ‘Ratty-Assed’ Boyfriend Invite You Into Their Trippy ‘Tantric Revelry’
4:45AM Molly Friedman | Feel like crying today? Great! Thanks to Natalie Portman, queen of bizarre short films that never fail to please, a new music video collaboration with her homeless-but-hot folk singer boyfriend Devendra Banhart will bring on the tears. Whether they’re from fits of laughter or rage, we can’t say for sure. What we do know? This acid trip of a video starring Natalie as Princess Carmensita and Devendra as her “ratty-assed Compadré,” whose impressive Harry Potter treasure trail peeks out from various loincloths, might just be the best short Natalie has ever been in. Sure, her Gangsta Rap on SNL was epic (”All the kids lookin’ up to me can suck my dick!”), her bare butt saved Hotel Chevalier from putting us to sleep, and the best short film from Paris, Je T’Aime featured Natalie in one of the most romantic visions of Paris we’ve seen to date. But can any of these compare to killer snakes flying out of her eyes, demon avatars best viewed while stoned, or watching Natalie transform herself into an octopus, whose tentacles Devendra “entangles himself in”? Watch this truly bizarre video after the jump.
